PLANNERS & LETTERING

We had an awesome day in Manchester last month hosting our PlannerFest Brush Lettering Taster workshop! This first PlannerFest event for lovers of all things stationery and journalling was a great success - the venue was the iconic Uppercampfield market on Deansgate Manchester - a perfect setting with a lovely touch of vintage quirkiness - just the best vibe!

We were kindly invited to host the PlannerFest Brush Lettering Taster workshop with Tombow to an inspiring audience of planners and journalers (the loveliest friendly bunch!). As the session developed, we witnessed some truly awesome 'hands' and saw some really great Brush Lettering! Keep going now guys!

From the truly creatively crafted journals and notebooks we saw, to the the fabulous range of stationery sellers throughout along with the interesting and inspiring speakers - it was a extraordinary event showcasing how to organise daily life and goals into things of function and beauty with a lot of fun and revelling in all things stationery. We at Mellor & Rose Modern Lettering were delighted to be part of this first PlannerFest event with Becki and her team - we enjoyed a fabulous full day doing our hand lettering / Calligraphy spot and hope the lovely folks lettering with us enjoyed it too.

It was perfect timing also for the launch of 'Simply Lettering' magazine who supplied a free copy for everyone who attended - looks a fantastic mag for letterers and highly informative. A simply fabulous and well organised event - thank you Becki and your fab team, Jill, Helen, Jessie as well as those great guys on the sound and visuals. Thank you for asking us and here's to the next PlannerFest x

Ps. To all who attended the PlannerFest Brush Lettering Taster workshop, we would like to thank you for coming and we hope you enjoyed it! Please let us know how you get on with your lettering - if at anytime you fancy coming along to one of our regular workshops to learn little more about lettering; whether dip pen, brush pen, or chalk. Our sessions friendly relaxed and slightly more cosy affairs with 8-12 people per session. We hope to see you again v soon!
